I believe the answer is:

septic

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">infected</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(similar in meaning)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for septic that I've seen before include "Putrefying" , "Putrefactive" , "Of wound, infected and pus-filled" , "Poisoned" , "Of wound, filled with pus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
